At this point, I say we just start calling her Sarah Feylin
I thought this was the weakest of the Tina Fey-as-Sarah Palin SNL sketches (mostly because it was long and dragged on in places), but it's still better than most anything else SNL is doing these days. And since these have a way of becoming hits on the Internets, here's SNL's take on the vice presidential debate ...
PREVIOUSLY ON THE BEEHIVE
- Tina Fey out-Palins Sarah Palin
- Tina Fey pwns Sarah Palin ... again
Comments:
I don't know. I think the lines, "I'm going to ignore that question, and talk about Israel," and "There's a special place in heaven for Israel," pretty much made that 10 minutes worth my while.

Damnit she didn't say nucular.
But like adam said, those two comments were the best. I wonder though if Fey is going to get tired of this?

It's amazing to me how a well written and performed satire can be far better analysis of the debate and the candidates than any of the talking head politicos on all the news channels. The opening statement regarding Palin's expectations being so low that merely to survive without a major blunder elevates her performance to a tie has proven to be exactly how she is being judged by all media pundits, when in fact if Biden had been debating anyone else who performed the way she did, everyone would be saying how rehearsed, coached, bad and unqualified that person was. Instead the analysis is that she held her own and somehow saved the McCain/Palin ticket.

the bit:
"I believe marriage is a sacred union between two unwilling
teenagers."
That was pretty darn funny.
